Great, well I have had many ideas over the years and just last week I finally went about trying to mod a map. I got in a few mechanics/rule setups already but was having trouble with land transport, and then stumbled upon your map while in search of help.
Your map has so much work and additions put into and some things already touch upon my ideas so it would be cool if my suggestions might make it in.
One thing I did notice though is that you do not have any Vichy rules or other objectives from Balanced Mod. It seems you guys wanted to build off of 2nd Edition and not the Balanced Mod3 rules?
Do you plan to make another map with the Bal mod rules?
Anyways, I will head over to that other thread to throw in my ideas.
Cheers
@waxfingers yea no worries see ya there : )
Hey Wax,
barnee is right about the thread from Baron Munchausen - that’s the place to suggest rule ideas or mechanics to G40. It’s very interesting.
If you would like to suggest any additional rules to the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion (G40 Expansion for TripleA) I suggest that when you get familiar with the game mechanisms etc. of these rules, you are most welcome to contact me on the chat. I’m always open to new ideas that has been thoroughly thought out:+1:
@The-Captain the first triplea lobby game I’ve seen !
Sadly it has a pw so I can’t join to ask em about bugs. They’re in rd 5 though ! :)
@the-captain hmm…not sure what you mean. The Lobby shows the games that are available. Some are active, some waiting for players and the others are empty. When there’s a pw you can’t join.
Anyway do you know these guys ? Pantheus ? Way cool they were on rd 5 . Only made it to 4 myself. On Japan 2 right now : )
I still need to do a triplea support type thingy guide for how to play with triplea. These guys opinions would be great.
Anyway, good stuff : )
…so, is it your/our version they are playing… or did they create their own G40 Expansion?
I don’t know any of these players… could be interesting to get contact
@the-captain That is your guy’s map. There are other G40 house rule maps, but that is the name of yours and v6.3
By the way, I can push your map on triplea haha. I play there a lot.
Especially if you can include my ideas as options =p
Hi Wax,
Concerning the G40 Expansion for TripleA, barnee is primus motor. So he’s the one to decide these matters.
Concerning your ideas for rules suggestion, you are most welcome to send me an e-mail (see Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion thread for further information) - to avoid confusion with this thread - as well as the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion thread (on which the G40 Expansion for TripleA is based).
Then we take it from there:relaxed: :relaxed:
OK, I think I understand what is happening. Basically this thread is for the TripleA version, but your House Rule Expansion thread is for table top and additions in general? Or it just needs to be the parent thread?
This thread is for TripleA, yes.
The Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion thread is for Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion tabletop only. Players questions & Rules Clarification.
Naturally, this thread and the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion thread are interconnected, since they concern the same rules.
To avoid confusion with other rules suggestions, you could send me an e-mail - or you could open your own thread concerning your rules.
@The-Captain this the one I modded with your rules. I have a link to your pdf rules doc in the game notes but Idk if they were familiar with it or not. Game notes also have the 2nd post here included.
Next time I see em on I might give em the “slap” noise to get their attention and ask.
@waxfingers heh heh yea sometimes I’ll take an empty bot and change the game. I try to be cool about it though and only do it to ones that have multiple empty ones
So @barnee you are in control of doing the XML and changes to both “Global 40 Expansion 6.3.0” and the “Global 40 House Rules 2.676.0” map?
Then the map I actually am looking for the options to be added to is the “Global 40 House Rules” map.
I am trying to get rail to work on my map. I see it works in your Expansion map and TWW but even copying the code completely my infantry does not want to load into the train (TWW style). Wondering if there is something else not put into the unit properties that I am missing.
@waxfingers yes exactly. House Rules Mod is where we’ll add your stuff.
Hmm … yea I can’t remember if you need a property turned on or not. I’m not super familiar with TWW. Lets jump over to Redesign and continue our discussion there.
I’ll take a quick look at what I did
@barnee
Cool:relaxed:
@barnee
Hi barnee, where did you find the symbols for Waffen-SS Oberst-gruppenführer etc. ? It looks great.
@the-captain heh heh ebbe from your neck of the woods. Think he’s Dutch though. : ) The numbers got turned backwards when I turned to face the Germans.
He’s got a newborn so I hesitate to ask for a fix. I might hack one together :)
hey just had a thought. Maybe give the Land Mines an arrow ? Would still wanna clarify in the log but ? N S E W ? could make them different colors too ? Well… still like red for armed but …
Would need NE SE NW SW too Idk. it might make for a quick visual where they are type thing.
Hmm…Idk Units are kinda crowded already. Well just a thought. Might pursue it : )
So, if they are armed (dug in) they get an arrow to show which border they defend…?
Anyway - if it works, why not try it:+1:
